If I am repaired, can we meet again for the first time, in all of the places I have feared to go, and then, again, in all of the places I will have forgotten, if I am repaired?

September 25


My heart is a warm pocket, in which I carry birthday wishes and what remains of a curious old man.

          Of the Buckley’s, I wondered which would better sing Hallelujah,
          Father? Son?
          of the muddied rivers that seized their young throats, I thought,
          of my own dark waters,
          of how, aged, I am beyond the tragedy of such angels
          and, should hope, 
          not to be found snared in the shallows,
          but rather, by tender hands,
          tumbled by luck and longevity, smooth as glass.
